00:00Even if he was forced, because of various cases,

00:03the candidature of Alice Guo will allow her to be the mayor of Bamban, Tarlac again.

00:08Darlene Cai was able to talk.

00:13The ombudsman dismissed Alice Guo as the mayor of Bamban, Tarlac

00:18which became controversial because of her alleged involvement in the illegal smuggling.

00:22But it seems that she is preparing for her comeback.

00:25Her lawyer said that Guo's run in the election continues.

00:29If she really wants a person there, who should be the judge?

00:34Should the people decide if she should be allowed to serve in their place?

00:41When she was dismissed from her post,

00:43she was also included in the decision to issue a perpetual disqualification to Guo

00:46for holding any position in the government.

00:49There was also a petition to cancel Guo's Filipino birth certificate

00:53because she is a Chinese immigrant.

00:55And she was also faced with complaints of qualified trafficking, money laundering, and tax evasion.

01:00There are no decisions of the courts as of now that she is not a Filipino.

01:06She will decide if she is qualified or not.

01:08Because the ombudsman ruling is not yet final.

01:11In fact, we still have pending reconsideration on that.

01:15And there is still a Court of Appeals, there is still a Supreme Court.

01:19So, it's still a long process.

01:21Solicitor General Menardo Guevara also said

01:24that the COC may still issue a petition against Guo

01:26because there are still pending cases against her.

01:29That's why the Ombudsman said that they will accept it.

01:33Actually, we have no intention of filing a petition against her.

01:36But we were not surprised.

01:37Because she can still run

01:43because the court has not yet made a final decision.

01:46So, as long as a person is not convicted,

01:49she can still run for any position.

01:51But Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla

01:54is studying the prohibition of Guo's candidacy.

01:58Well, I wouldn't say it's her right.

02:01She can try, but I wouldn't say it's her right.

02:04Because she's not Filipino and she bears falsified documents.

02:09However, it is possible for Guo to face her incumbent counselor

02:13and acting mayor Eranio Timbang.

02:15Tarlac ex-officio board member and Marangay Annapol chairman Jose Joey Salting

02:21who was a fierce opponent of Guo during the 2022 elections.

02:25Former Mamban Mayor Jose Antonio Feliciano

02:27who was followed by Guo to the post.

02:29A tandem of Feliciano, suspended Mamban Vice Mayor Leonardo Ding Anunzacion

02:34who is running for his re-election.

02:36Former counselor Rodolfo Rudy Escoto is also a candidate.

02:40Unlike other candidates here in Mamban,

02:43there are no feelers so the first information is the field of dismissed Mayor Alice Guo

02:47or Guo Huaping, who will be her authorized representative.

02:51But it's time for her to go to the local Comelec office

02:54where she will be accepted and prosecuted just like other COCs.

02:59From here in Mamban, Tarlac, for GMA Integrated News,

03:02Darlene Cai, for 24 Hours.
